Hypertension has no symptoms, so it's important to know your numbers! For most people, normal blood pressure is less than 120/80. Remember, regular checkups with your primary care doctor or a specialist are critical for monitoring your blood pressure. High blood pressure can damage the circulatory system, which raises the risk of heart attack, stroke, heart failure, kidney disease, vision loss, and other types of heart diseases. You can lower your risk factors by making healthier life choices and taking prescribed medications.
